          Anyone in the Atlanta area get the street version?! I'd like to see them before I order a pair. Leaving my rears wrapped in black synthetic suede and planning on getting the front carbon fiber street cards with the upper being wrapped in suede...no door pull or map holder, just the release handle and a pull strap.

            Haven't put mine on yet, but the finish is very smooth, looks great, cuts are very sharp, precise, but there are some fibers hanging on, so a light wet sand around the back edge will take care of that. I have the Race version.

                I think you'll get it Friday -- FedEx tracking number 796102129507.

                  Still waiting... Alex, you heard from Mike in the last few days? Sent an email monday asking if he's shipped mine yet or not (as I'm changing jobs and will need to organise someone to pass them on) and no reply.

                    Hey mate,

                    All 2-door panels and rear trims have shipped and, AFAIK, delivered -- except, obviously, for you. :) One US guy ordered panels for a 4-door, and they were done separately, at the very end. Not sure if he got them yet.

                    US shipments, both bulk and direct, went by FedEx, but I don't know how the factory shipped to Australia. Could it be by boat?

                    I'm out of town again, and will return on Tuesday. If you don't hear back from Mike by then, let me know and I'll try calling him.

                    Alex

                      OK folks, according to FedEx, everyone should have received their fastener kits by now. Let the installs begin! If anybody needs additional kits, let me know.

                      Thanks to those of you that reimbursed me for the additional $3.50 shipping -- much appreciated!

                        anyone have any idea how to mount and chop up the door panels to get it fitted like on the website? Any idea would be great. I will try to install the panels tomorrow and try to post up pictures.

                              I spoke with Mike today. Your panels definitely shipped, by FedEx, and you should get them any day (it took a while for FedEx to pick up again). He was driving, so I asked him to e-mail you the tracking number.

                              Mike saw your e-mails, and apologized for not responding -- they have been swamped, trying to catch up on all the orders they put aside for our GB.
